In the city center, a lawyer was exposed whose activities cost tens of thousands of dollars — he positioned himself as a “quarantine facilitator” for men avoiding conscription into the Armed Forces of Ukraine
This scandalous case has garnered widespread public attention, as it involves allegations of abuse of official position and fraud, as well as connections to high-level figures within the judicial system. According to official data from Kyiv police, investigators and employees of the Security Service of Ukraine established that a 31-year-old lawyer, who also works as a legal consultant at the Constitutional Court of Ukraine, created a large-scale scheme of illegal services. Based on collected evidence, he offered potential clients — men of draft age — fake employment at critical infrastructure facilities of the country. This was intended to serve as a formal reason to exempt them from mobilization during the next conscription wave. A source in law enforcement noted that the entire scheme operated through elaborate, well-organized corruption chains. The lawyer offered his clients more than just consultations — he guaranteed a quick resolution regarding the update of their data at the Territorial Recruitment and Social Support Center (TDC), as well as registration for military service without the need for personal presence. Additionally, he facilitated employment at critical infrastructure enterprises, which, according to the fraudster’s logic, would enable clients to evade military service. To assure his clients of the seriousness of his intentions, the lawyer promised to resolve all issues swiftly and "without unnecessary formalities" for $15,000. They paid these fees in three installments, and the scheme proved to be quite effective, judging by the amount of money received. From two mobilized men whom he "protected" from being drafted, he collected at least $30,000. Unexpectedly for the suspect, police detained him immediately after receiving the final payment — exactly $15,000. With court approval, a preventive measure was chosen — detention with the possibility of bail set at over one million hryvnias. According to "Ukrainska Pravda," the suspect paid this bail and has already been released from the detention center. This story has caused concern among the public, as it involves not only fraud but also potential abuse of authority at high levels, including involvement of judges and law enforcement agencies. The investigation is ongoing, and law enforcement promises a thorough inquiry into all circumstances and the dissemination of this scheme to prevent similar abuses in the future.
